What are subject groups, and how do I add a new subject group?

Subject groups are a valuable feature offered by Campus 365, an educational management system, that simplifies the process of assigning the same subject to multiple courses or classes. This feature is particularly useful in educational institutions where multiple courses or classes share the same curriculum or syllabus for a particular subject.

When using the subject groups feature, administrators or teachers can create a group and assign a specific subject to it. This subject group acts as a container or template for the subject, allowing it to be easily applied to multiple courses or classes.

By utilising subject groups, administrators or teachers can save time and effort by avoiding the need to individually assign the same subject to each course or class. Instead, they can simply assign the subject group to the desired courses or classes, streamlining the process and reducing repetitive tasks.

Here's a step-by-step explanation of how subject groups work within Campus 365:

• Creation of a Subject Group: The administrator or teacher creates a subject group within the educational management system. The subject group is given a name, such as "Mathematics Group," to represent the subject that will be assigned to multiple courses or classes
• Subject Assignment: The administrator or teacher then assigns the relevant subject, such as "Mathematics," to the subject group. This subject will be shared among the courses or classes associated with the subject group
• Course/Class Assignment: The subject group can now be assigned to multiple courses or classes within the educational institution. Instead of individually assigning the subject to each course or class, the subject group is selected, automatically applying the shared subject to the chosen courses or classes
• Easy Updates: If any changes or updates need to be made to the subject, such as modifying the curriculum or syllabus, it can be done within the subject group. The changes will automatically reflect in all the courses or classes associated with the subject group, ensuring consistency and reducing manual effort

Overall, subject groups enhance the efficiency of managing subjects across multiple courses or classes within an educational institution. They simplify the process of assigning and updating subjects, saving time and reducing the risk of inconsistencies or errors. This feature is especially beneficial for educational institutions with large numbers of courses or classes that share common subjects.
